Manipulating Objects with a Power Assist Robot in Linear Vertical and Harmonic Motion: Psychophysical-Biomechanical Approach to Analyzing Human Characteristics to Improve the Control

This paper investigates human characteristics in terms of weight perception, load forces, motions etc. for manipulating objects with a power assist robot and proposes a novel control for the robot based on the human characteristics to improve maneuverability, safety etc. We hypothesized that weight...
